yeh. you dont wanna refresh an empowered garrote (from stealth/vanish) at all. otherwise do it within the pandemic windoiw
you dont wanna even cast another garrote till the one from stealth fades too it seems
do i want to use exsang on cd after my opener or sit on it until i refresh bleeds
on cd with pandemic refreshed bleeds
i think it ends up lining up with your other cds eventually
cuz youd want it up for your vanish etc
I read in here about something to do with like 2:00-2:15
I assumed that was a time in the fight when all the CDs lined up
yeah
that should be when vanish and vendetta are back up
thats the third exsang
yeah that makes way more sense
It was probs asked, but at what point does Archive/Laser Matrix outbeat Shrouded in uldir?
prob pretty soon. we get 75 additional stat each week
and laser matrix is already really strong
archive not so much
so do we think it will become 2x shroud 1x uldir? or 3x uldir?
theres no point in 3x uldir
It doesn't stack
ahh
so 2x shroud 1xlaser
Is ther a very good rogue guide out ?
have you checked the pins?
Isn't the SS head hard to get? If there's a laser head I assume that would be ideal
Yes i have
im going laser head, SS chest cuz those both drop in raid
then praying for shoulders from m+
hi
got SS chest in weekly bag which is nice
the guide in the pins misses quite a couple of things
anyone know more about how much worse the archive is than lazer? reorigination aside
have you checked the herodamage sims?
i havent looked there beside SS and Heed lately 😃 let me go check thanks
@crisp steppe thats why i asked .. 😄
the guide is still good
on the 2nd set of vendetta/vanish cds should i vanish grg vend? or save vanish for the end of vend to get up stronger bleeds for when vend is over
I can't speak to the accuracy of the icy veins guide but it goes into more detail on several topics
things that may not be obvious if u haven't played rogue b4
check out both
why would you not use vendetta for the empowered garrote?
If you are trying to line up vanish with 2nd Vendetta, i assume first vanish isnt held for 2nd Exang
Right but when do u use vanish after pull
but that changes with X
Yes
You vanish after your garrote with sang expires
And garrote twice
Into rupture
Figured, thanks
wouldnt it be g-g-r-ve-va-ex ?
va = vanish?
yeah
Why would we vanish after garrote?
no
why would u vanish b4 ex?
u cant double garrote outside of stealth
Subterfuge
ah nvm i fucked up
U need the stealth buff to garrote 2x in row
and then Va-g-g-r again
rup with 3 cp?
Yea, we are discussing the vanish rotation after opener
I thought its G-R-G-Vendetta-Muti-Rupture-Exsa
U rup with 3 and then rupt again with 5 to get full pandemicd rupture
@strange python i think taht Ven is after M-R, to get the most of its duration for the Va-G-G-R
stupid question alert: How is SS our best trait when it can only be cast from stealth and vanish is what a 2 minute CD?
might do i run on a dummy
(i havnt played sin yet at all)
sims still say that tb is better than ex
Because the damage it does is insane.
bcs @hard plaza the dmg it does, covers for the 2 minutes wait time 😄
oh lol
@unreal wraith I sim more with exsa
@strange python will do
2 cps are really valuable too.
I misunderstood how the bug worked until today and I’ve been garroting 4 targets in m+. I’m excited to get off work and do the real deeps
do we wait till bleeds expire after using exsa?
sure, wouldnt wanna clip buffed dots
EX sims 300 dps higher for me as wel atm
but i dont rly like EX for progress
cus if u dont use it on CD, it loses its value so fast
yeah just today ive been making sure i dont clip enpowered bleeds
Can't you say the same thing about TB @candid phoenix
TB is just a button tho, u can press it to w/e target u are attacking, even if u lose 2 secs from its duration the dps loss is much less than messing up ex
yeah. that is true.
TB is missing synergy with the traits, but avg dps is avg.
I just like the overlap of GC trinket with the exang.
So how do you Play assa in m+? How do you open on a trash pack? 3x garrote then fok and envenom spam or we put rupture or how we do?
ggg ct. /dance.
synergy is a dbl edged sword 
depends what M+ it is @kindred cedar
sim says g-m-g in opener
Rolia that is w/o any SS trait tho
that is ST
Any pointer to how a opener is? If u skip the specific dungeons part
cus if u have SS that is like 8 CPs
g r g anyway
nvm i see now
I have 2x ss traits
Have we ever had boss specific tips for raids in the guide? I would be genuinely interested to see what comes up as the optimal strategy for some of the current bosses
and do we use exsa on cd or when bleed has longest duration left?
why not both
g-r-g-mu-r-ve-ex->dots expire vanish redo g
right?
yes @unreal wraith that is it
if i use that then vanish and vendetta are out of alignment for the rest of the fight?
then at 220 vendetta vanish gg GC Exang
GC trinket is?
they're out of alignment by like 10 seconds?
like rage.
So when exsang is coming up from cd we make sure to put a Full bleed rupture for exsang? Even if current one is at High seconds we still refresh it with a Full one?
for like 20 seconds on the 2nd set
Ah, got it 380 from cache 👌
So i bound gc /exang.
then they are perfectly aligned
ah yeah i didnt account for the half times on the bleeds
17k overall damage in 10 underrot, assass feels good
So you delay exs for gale?
unbuffed garrote/ruptures dont really do much with a single exang. it is the vendetta vanish gg trinket exang that makes your damage.
Is ct before ex and after pandemic rupt in opener worth it?
@delicate horizon yes and no. it is in the apl for Single target. read the sample profile.
Anyone seen the 3 target SS garrote overwrite by doing 4th outside of stealth BUG, confessed as a bug and is being worked on? Or have they said something about that is the intended plan of how it will work?
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation
Currently still bugged. Applying 1-3 Garrotes in Subterfuge, and then applying another Garrote outside of Subterfuge, all of your Subterfuge-empowered Garrotes lose the Shrouded Suffocation multiplier, However the Subterfuge multiplier still remains.
Advised to not cast unbuffed Garrotes to avoid losing SS trait damage bonuses until this has been fixed.
they have said nothing
Aight, sweet @lone junco
Aye, know about it, just wondering if its even confessed as a bug so they're working on it. Or they just say its intended work of the trait
It snapshots.
i wonder if SS bug will be fixed, and then nerfed at the same time
so basically you get mongo haste and click the red button
I have 385 farlans and fathoms
fixed and nerfed is my guess.
Reckon gc better?
nerfed how?
they'll nerf the damage? just like they nerfed deadshot?
blizz will be like "oh we'll nerf it, but hey at least we fixed the bug!"
They wont nerf it.
ok but the actual mechanic will stay the same
@lone junco what snapshots gc + bleeds
exsang
It's not really THAT strong
cant tell what blizz might do tbh
read that wrong
Anyone know if there's a minimum haste point for sin atm?
Does simming use gc perfectly?
It's just really good in m+ because you can abuse the constant stealth resets, like the old Lego shoulders
it's just be a feelycraft answer Zid
Man feelycraft would do wonders for me
id like 60% haste at all times please
cause im at 10% and I feel like cutting my dick off
I'd say like <15% is too low for above average gear
i'm at 17.34%
in uldir i have 19% haste and it feels pretty good
so guys elaborate planing uptime is more important than high cp evenoms correct?
I need 15% min.
Im gonna farm so many M+ this week
Got a 370 dagger from mother yesterday
I still have 340 weapons
I have a 340 ring
someone shoot me in my foot
I read that the reverse bug is true that if you apply un-stealthed garrotes and then apply a stealthed one they all get bonus from SS -- true?
me 2 i do more deeps than people with 370 weapons tho so its fine :^)
that'd be some real spaghetti
moms spaghetti?
spaghetti code
How many ss traits?
2, the chest doesn't have it
Is it worth to let Garrote/Rupture drop In toxic blades to spam Envenom?
nope
I really wanna know if EP uptime is >> High CP Evenom
you lose your energy regen
2 ss traits
is it still worth to use ex when you only have 2 ss traits?
you should never envenom below 4cp
im doing 30k dps
yes ornatus
does exsang snapshot the haste from Berserking?
prob without lust
It's just so much easier to use toxic blade. Hitting exsang optimally is a bitch because of mechanics keeping you away from bosses at critical times
high people burst like 50k now with lust
quick question: vendetta applies the damage increase for bleeds/poison already applied to enemies?
Yes Val.
nice.
fake love, is that with PB or CT talent?
That's single target so pb
yeah.. I just realised that I could see that in the link 🤦
Do y'all have to switch to adds on bosses, are you ever afforded the luxury of just staying on the raid boss
PB
need to switch unfortunately
@strange python i assume yes.
You mean the luxury of multi-dotting?
but once everyone has more gear im sure they dont care
unfortunately? I kinda like it.. multiple ruptures is nice
Not that unfortunate, adds increase your dps huge cause you can dot all the things
and there is probably a condition of +2cp env/rupture to push 100% ep uptime during SS GC Exang.
btw pandemic refresh only works once right?
that doesnt make sense.
like i refresh G and R only once
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation

than let it run out completely
always refresh, unless boosted by SS or exsang
Is reverse SS bug a thing?
please correct me if I'm wrong, noobe 😃
So .. I basicly want 3x SS trait right? just to be correct 😒
there is no bota, so re applying rupture out of pandemic is a loss. but we want max length rupture and garrotes when we exang.
Heroedamage and bloodmallet knows
is 3x SS mandatory?
you still clip elaborate planning right? I see nothing in the apl that even mentions EP
In m+ use ss
For raid Just SIM it
Garrote x3
3 garrotes and a crimson tempest.
yes you overcap cps. but each garrote alone is about 100k dmg. the vendetta/exang target not included.
i presume exang works with ct?
Why c.t before rupture though
CT is just bulk cleave
depends.
so no more toxic blade?
just get the 3 g and dont bug it.
So you don't lose duration on garrote for the ecsang
after that, the rest is up to you.
!ss

If the target is priority yes i would rupture and exsang first
In every pack i try to exang something
doesn exsang only work on one target or are all targets with bleeds affected?
I have a feeling exang won't sim higher for me until I get GC. TB still sims higher for me. Unless it's a secondary stat thing
in cleave it is the garrote. period
1
What's the radius of GC
3y?
Lol
it sucks. so i bound GC/Exang
to hammer at the same time.
if you drop them with gcd. tank movement might pull mob away from the circle.
Is that just a double /cast macro
yeah /use /cast
I can't see using GC in m+ ever
GC?
#showtooltip
then you dont know about ggg
What is gc?
it is 1min cd. each pack gets a 3garrote possibly a vendetta rupture gc/exang. all 3 garrotes gain the haste, and the exang snapshots.
so if the trash moves, just stand in your circle and fok fok ct.
I haven't gotten it yet so I can't really say, but doesn't everything jyst move to much
Especially sanguine
it snapshots the boss.
In sanguine it sucked. It's better now
So I've been told Exsang only works on the ennemy being targetted, is this true?
Wait, exang snapshots still? What else snapshots that we have?
my TB sims higher on ST
sorry, what is "snapshot?"
but if exsang is ST only, why not go TB
TB is ST as well...
Yes, thats why I'm asking, why exsang over TB in AoE if both are ST
ok. here we go.
is it just preference, is it because CT is an extra bleed and that makes exsang ahead?
2x garrotes = 23 sec.
GC is 10 sec
Vendetta is 20sec
Rupture is longer.
Exang them all to overlap the GC trinket use. and you have a fully hasted round on the boss. aka like 30k dps for 20sec
if you can do 25k aoe with 3 garrotes and or 30k single with TB, then fine
guuuuuuuuuuuuys guess who just got a 380 galecaller's boon
but I hit exang and boss runs off. i still get my 25k garrote ticks.
you stand around with your dick out cause you hit TB. and he moved.
not me, the stupid feral pulling 4.8k dps did
lol
oy
LOL
Rip
off
@thin ingot one day.
a man has a dream
until they change SS, i think GC is my CoF.
....
Do any of our other bleeds snapshot?
I probably wouldve shut down my pc then and there tbh
What t100 talent are y’all using for m+?
what is snapshoting
yay got the dagger from mother with a slot! 
Ok and exsang?
this week i run PB
cus trash alrdy dies way too easy
and PB is a useful for bosses
Yeah.
it counts your haste at the time of the Exasng. divides up the number of ticks. rounds up or down. and then ticks that many times.
Pills, snapshotting is when your dots don't retroactively update depending on the buffs you gain /lose
so at that point haste up or down doesnt affect the exang tick rate
@lone junco exang sims about 300 dps less than TB for me. Would you say it's worth to go ahead and switch to Exang so i can start going through the growing pains of learning it for the (what I assume to be) the inevitability that it'll pull ahead?
@proven pumice do you have SS??
2x SS
remember when you opened with shoulder bombs in M+? and peaked like an idiot?
or sub cloak shoulder dfa round?
This ggg is similar.
dont miss out.
ok so you jsut GC and vandetta before garrote
depends.
Idk why exsang sims more for me than tb then, I always assumed it was because I'm 2x SS lol
Could be you have a lot of haste
But it's not like correct usage of exsang has a massive learning curve
vendetta is 2min for bosses first, then prio second. exang and GC should be ready each pack.
is it worth to lose 2 shrouded trait for +100 sim dps ?
I had 9% at one point with galecallers and it still simmed higher @wheat zealot
I thought that too
i woudlnt
not for M+ at all. keep the 3ss
@ruby girder the second an additional target comes in, that +100 DPS gets torn to pieces.
Playing sin without ss traits big yikes
@ruby girder cause at the moment you add any type of cleave SS goes nutz
ss requres restealth. it is m+ dream. not so cool in raid.
alright thx
Assuming you have vanish and can spread ss/subter garrotes or its the start of the encounter
@proven pumice worth learning exang. but in raid TB/Exang will both do well.
@lone junco i isually delay my vanish a little for any type of cleave phase so i can garrote multiple targets
very
Has assa been stealth nerfed?? I have lost 1000 dps overnight
with double/triple SS you just apply 4x garrote on mobs if possible and don't care about CP right?
@buoyant kraken did you take off a weapon?
Some general m+ questions. After I get the empowered garrotes out, should I use the CP on Crmison tempest before the ruptures, or rupture then CT?
3 @fallow estuary
@buoyant kraken are you using different Talents
G g g ct
Talents
When u Exsanguinate do u let your rupture/garrote dot almost run out before reapplying or can u just reapply them at 5-6sec without losing the faster dot ticking?
nothing, everything is what i raided with yesterday
Let them run out geeving
@stable mauve I do like 20-25kdps on medium packs. over and over. like this.
ggg CT
Fok FOk Rupture (each elite)
Fok fok CT Ham.
refresh garrotes after 18 sec.
when you are down to 1-2 mobs use env over ct.
Why are the other 3 fucked?
!ss

That's why
okay thank you @coral meteor
what is CT ?
then the other will loose dps?
Not until the 3x runs out
lose the rest
@lone junco you spam CT over envenoms even if a CT is running still?
Only cast ct with pandemic at 2 seconds.
in massive packs yes. each Ct hit lands for like 3k
14k club
@proven ice no, i actually do it, i got 22% haste and i can do it now, cast 4 garrotes, but its risky cus if my latency goes up by even a little i mess it up
wheres my cake
lol
CT in fat trash is hamm.
@thin ingot eXSA OR tb
find 4 target dummys and cast 4 cheap shots and send me the screenshot
Haste doesnt affect rogues gcd, casting 4 abilities in subterfuge is impossible
No matter how much haste you get
exsang sims higher though
Ye I just attempted it
it doesnt land.
Couldn't do it
well i managed to cast 4 garrotes on some 4m trash packs yday, but a lot of times it failed also
the 4th one was cast inside subterfuge
you can cast 4
but landed outside of it
the way you get 4 garrotes, is that its not on cd at the end of subterfuge
and procd the cd
hey guys im using elvui but the text on enemy hp constantly says 100%
garrotes, because you can garrote out of stealth
ergo doesnt count
and you get bug.

anyone can help me out?
thats what i m saying, the 4th garrote didnt trigger CD 😄
well i dont have one, cus i didnt rly capture it

Pics or didnt happen
2 more questions. Exsangunite only affects your target right? And in the opener when do you vanish? Early in vendetta? Or once your original g has worn off @lone junco
i tried it a lot more times but with 59MS i was failing it
i only managed it like 2-3 times
Wait Wait Wait Wait
So i may only put up 3 garrotes , then NO garrote recasting whatsoever on no mob
This is very close. That vendetta can slide before mut.
until all 3 run out?
Correct
my deatails keeps restarting after vanish. is it normal?
X))))))
It gets the point across. I think the vanish rupture is probably early as well.
@lone junco your 20-25k dps in m+ trash packs didn't include galecallers or other CDs?
So what kind of burst do you see with that opener?
You you get the double garrote at the end of Ven duration?
I haven't tried exang build I still run TB
I assume you always want the vanish to come in before ven ends?
if you don't have almost full duration bleeds on when your exsanguinate comes up do u need to make sure u full duration before exsanguinate comes up?
Man I really need to get better at TB with fewer cp... I'm end up TB at 5 constantly because I was trying to mut at 2/3 and end up at 5 for TB timing...
@proven pumice probably gc ggg ct, fok fok ruptures. maybe a exang.
but it was over and over and over. like
me ---------------------------------------
group --------
you can gc in stealth?
they even out overall for bosses.
you dont need to gc prior to the ggs
its in there somewhere.
But ex only hits your target correct?
yes its a ST melee attack
do we use fan of knives at 2 or 3 targets?
3
And you want to vanish before the end of your ven everytime yes?
not in M+. you use vanish with your brain
Idk assass overall is really good
like big pack of 6+ or on bosses.
If you have esanguinate you vanish halfway into vendetta
17k overall underrot
If you have TB?
?
if you dont have exang, you can vanish gg during pandemic of the open garrote
i just managed 4 Cheap shots on the dummy, but they had DRs, gonna do it again and ScrSht it @proven ice
if you have exang you must wait until garrote is dun.
@candid phoenix try ggg cs
i use prey for now. due to the overlap of exang and that buff
Is there an aura to track exang dots/subterfuged dots?
Thank you
i will in a bit
@plucky oak mizerok WA does a good job
So is ass bis now or what?

i'd loose 230 dps singletarget if i get another shrouded trait instead of lazer matrix - worth for M+? 🤔
Do those weakauras have good documentation explaining the functionality?
tfw no exsang emote
dont need an emote to do Belligerent dps.
2 target open is 1x garrote 1 mob 2x garrote another rupture vendetta exsang then rupture other mob right
i still do g g g on two mobs
if the second is prio. and not just another shiter
g tab
gg rupture, vendetta mut mut rupture gc exang. pump env rounds .. . . . vanish gg.
Well even if one isn't prio it wouldn't change
if there are only 2
longer duration for number 2
if one isnt prio. hold the vendettas. use the exang.
you get 1 more global of garrote tick on number 1
Well yea, if you need vendetta within 2 minutes
Well sure
I do G tab GG a lot of the time too
But optimally G tab G tab G is preferred if you're super anal about it like I am
also. manually pick your elites out of packs of shit.
So after the opener, the first time Vanish is up, it's solo with Exang. The second time Vanish is up, it has all it's CD buddies along with Exang again?
Garroting the bubble assholes in TD 👌
never garrote the non elites first.
Can you make a nameplate style filter that makes a border around elite mobs nameplate in elvui
Wait...wait...wait.... we use garrote?
no
Huh
blade flurry blade rush
ok i got it now, uploading img
Garrote is shite
Blade Flurry Killing Spree is the new breed
I play assassin with axes and use fok to build cp
I legit tried 2.6s
g g g ct. fok fok rupture fok fok rupture.
all the same
even tried 2.6s with 4p20
Assa in m+ isn't complete brain dead at least which is nice
btw., it still buffs garrote through the roof.

outlaw in m+ infinately easier for similar dmg thoug
I don’t know how to approach aoe in m+
2ss 4p20. pretty funny
I was playing outlaw.
pres Bf, continue st rotation
garrote 3 targets, spam fok, multi dot/CT
Okay.
Outlaw is not similar damage
do you exang on CD or line it up with Vendetta/vanish? did`nt see it in the ravenholdt-guide
@pliant jolt get 3 ss traits and enjoy
@proven ice @lone junco
i did that once last night.
assassin is bis in m10-15+ according to raiderio
Maybe if you pull the whole dungeaon
and put the cs on the prio
So I know the SS garrote is bugged and you'll overwrite the empowered garrote if you dont let it run out. In a pack if I regular garrote a 4th target will that effect the other empowered garrote that are out?
aka dont do pussy pulls?
It's pretty annoying when mizerok says "look at the guide" a thousand times, but the guy has some good weak auras
Do I want to get rupture up on everything after ct?
Not easy to get 3 ss traits though
Okie.
dunno if my weakaura addon is fucked up or something, but mizerok's WA isn't showing in combat here 
Don't you have 4 globals on pull, 1 from stealth itself which then procs 3 seconds of subterfuge
So dont 4th garrote ANY target until the initial garrotes are done?
Pls.
👏
I just switched.
Is it worth pooling to clip EP as much as possible with envenom or better not to lose SoT uptime?
@lone junco do you have 4 stealth globals on pull. 1 from stealth itself which gives 3 seconds from subterfuge
I like sub too tho.
@potent forge subteruge buff timer starts during GCD so its almsot impossible to get a 4th
@potent forge only do 3. dont fuck around with that 4th. it will bug
"Assn is trash at m+ Outlaw/Sub is better" is all I heard last week as I played Assn and topped the meters
Pls no rogue vs rogue.
playing scent x3 is gonna suck compared to the 3g
haha
to be fair, if (when) they nerf SS it absolutely will be pretty bad

2scent 1fok
Scent is still good as well
🙂
eh idk about FoK but maybe. I never looked into that one
with scent up, fok whites are big.
So if you go for the 4th and it fails itll turn the other 3 into normal g?
i wonder how far it'll fall when SS gets nerfed
I swear to fucking god. I hammer the opener too fast, and jumps right over the vanish.
at least M+ open is easy. g g g ct. cant mess that up.
When I've played assa in the past it was often worth clipping envemon with elaborate planning. Is it worth pooling for this atm or would it be better not to considering that surge of toxins lasts quite a bit longer now, and clipping envenom on EP would therefore drop overall SoT uptime?
Used to do similar in wrath and legion
@ripe dock we dont have a lot of crit. and mastery isnt scaling poisons worth a shit. the only thing that matters is EP over the SS open.
So it's probably worth it then?
So basically just isgnore EP?
How are you guys setting up your raidbots profile to optimize for M+?
4 target patchwerk?
oh, you mean only worth keeping EP up over empowered garrottes?
i sim beastlord, 1minute
O.o
yeah. EP is very important during the SS duration whether Exang or not.
idk if thats correct or not since it isnt going to include m+
Im a bit dumb but, can someone please explain me why as assa u use "garrote->rupture->garroite in opener? :x
@pallid hound read up
Cause you are doing it wrong
right, cheers
@gentle belfry Bit useless of an answer, since the guide doesnt even mention pandemic
Wouldn't EP stay up naturally if you follow the Ravenholdt guide
@strange python I meant read up in this chat, where it was recently discussed.
re: EP/ss
I think best case scenario EP has about 65% up time
could speculate that 2cp+ env over the ss may be a gain. but that is also the vendetta time. so 30k env is huge.
so just play 4+cps for now.
imo
@gentle belfry Okay fair, i rescind my statement and apologize lol
By the way boys
dont want bitch envenoms during your vendetta
Such a waste
PvP cap chest is 355 shrouded chest
but clipping is ideal.
is shrouded good
Don't do it with 2 secs left
@fallow estuary week 1 wep. week 2 chesst ss?
yes
My question relates more to downtime when we are low on energy however, between cooldowns
Don't spam mut-mut-env-mut-mut-env
Yeah I was trying to get my pvp cap this week before raid but I didnt. Then I got a 370 SS chest from Fetid and was glad I didnt cap haha
With GC trinket your opener is way way too fast for slow clipping
you can choose between 2 chests - one has SS and one has BitS
@fallow estuary is it 355 and shrouding for all rogues? O.o
370 azerokk trinket 250 dps downgrade 👌
@gentle belfry where? ^^ on ravenholdt its not wrote up
oh shit that's what you meant by shrouded
Like, I can pool and then get 3 envenoms, for example, within the EP buff clip
With subterfuge - on your opening rotation do you cast garrote and then garrote again immediately within 3 seconds?
@pallid hound Scroll up in the chat or search using key words - its been discussed a few times today
What are the secondary traits on the pvp chest
but would that be a dps loss because i would lose SoT uptime?
or well
t2 traits
@pallid hound read up on pandemic timers, thats the gist of why the opener looks that way
also i def need to get something to track when garrote and rupture will run out
@pallid hound coupled with shrouded suffocation and subterfuge of course
does anyone else use those
Farming for SS gear pieces sucks... I was lucky and got one from my weekly cache

@strange python Thanks
So few bosses drop them
thank you
@strange python I must have been doing something wrong on the training dummy. When I used it again the tooltip debuff showed it as a lower damage garrote on the 2nd one.
@fading spade SS trait in weekly conquest
Garrote-Rupture-Garrote(gains pandemic length)-Vendetta-Mutilate-Rupture(5CP Rupture gains pandemic length from the first 3CP Rupture)-Exsanguinate
chest piece
yaw can i ask a question?
You still dubs garrote on open while rocking poison blade
And it's 355
Yeah true
So should we try to envenkm before EP rounds out, or let it run out so total EP time is higher?
Only thing that changes is what happens after vendetta
Why do I see a dagger in weekly conq? It’s because I didn’t complete last?
(assuming you're unranked)
You Envenom as close to EP running out as possible
Yeah I think so
So the envenom gets the EP boost too
But is it worth pooling for that outside cooldown windows when energy is low?
Yes, the conq rewards are linear progression, u wont move onto next item until u complete previous
hey is archive of the titans a good trait?
Its mid tier afaik
Is it worth playing Sin with only 1 SS trait?
i see some people playing one
archive but i mean only for raid enviroment
on m+ it might be less worth it
Also: what if I can use a 3 cp envenom just before vendetta will run out, and also to increase uptime on empowered garrote. I guess it would be worth using this instead of holding to 5?
ah ok
Yeah Happy I'd say so
What exactly are people running in m+ for sin atm that's launching it so far ahead of every other spec in the game? Trait / talent wise that is. Sin is at a score of 98 and 2nd best is way down at 92
I didn't take it to be god tier / ahead of outlaw in cleave
Shrouded Suffocation
You get crazy cleave with it
Is that with or without exsang because I see a lot of arguing
You can run either TB or Exsang
Just get the SS.
People didn't like exang in legion. They still don't like it now. Tb is easier to work with.
Just need to understand the bug.
Inb4 70% nerf to SS
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation
Currently still bugged. Applying 1-3 Garrotes in Subterfuge, and then applying another Garrote outside of Subterfuge, all of your Subterfuge-empowered Garrotes lose the Shrouded Suffocation multiplier, However the Subterfuge multiplier still remains.
Advised to not cast unbuffed Garrotes to avoid losing SS trait damage bonuses until this has been fixed.
Don't fucking garrote after the opener.
Take this into account Grim
It just sims way below my outlaw sims so I'm confused.
What talent are you running in M+? Poison bomb / CT?
it's ridiculous AOE even with the bug lol
CT if you get big pulls
@prisma pond my bet is. SS and subterfuge. At the same time.
if I have two traits of SS should i still run exsanguinate? I sim less with exsang but im still unsure.
Yeah they'll probably destroy assassination
u just said it yourself
SS is so kwei yet it needs to be nerfed.
how many ruptures do you keep on 3+ add pulls ?
But I love it so hard
They’ll probably nerf ss to one CP
I'm honestly amazed they didn't touch SS just looking at bloodmallet and it makes me hesitant to hard swap to sin rogue rofl
lol
SS 1 CP wouldn't be that bad
I'd be happy with that
Nah
i rupture as many as i can since i roll PB lol
I think that’s the “likely” nerf, if one happens
It would nerf our opener but we would keep that sweet deeps
Yeah we wouldn't be pulling 35K ST burst
35k st burst?
yes
Ez
I remember exsang being really awkward to use post-opener in legion so I never touched sin. Do you just pop it on CD with SS garrote up?
Exsang burst with 3 SS is wacky
And im 360 ilvl
I do 20K on dummy with no buffs
Sure as shit cant hit 35k with TB lol
Yeah haha
i can do 20k on dummy no buffs
It rides on Exsang
almost 25k sometimes
Oh
Ehhhh I've broken 30k with TB if lusted
with lust and other buffs you should definitely hit 30k+
I actually crossed over to 40k
U mean with exsang and bl
I've done 40K with a good PB proc
Just went to the dummy and tried it
Hit 27K burst
I've done 100k during MoP
And you can't even vanish on the dummy
I need to try this room 3 mother burst strat for dem dank rank 1s
How do you even get to room 3 outside of mythic
for Mythic?
need to disregard all instruction and stay with the tank on mother
That was in the context of mythic im sure lol
Guild downed mother last night, 3rd room is fun
Do you exsang on cd or wait for a refreshed rupture? Or u refresh rupture even if it has like half of the time remaining?
I'm usually the first one to cross feelsbadman
you could pad mother heroic so bad if everyone was in on it
What are you guys going for zul opener? More worth to drop normal single target rotation on zul since adds die so fast or still garrote 3?
we 1 room Mother on Heroic
Yeah
lol i crossed early the other night and i was like "what exactly are y'all doing in here"
anyone know how u can turn off exsang gcd in a WA? the trigger gcd option is turned off
You can reset MOTHER and as ur doing that have everyone run to room 3. When MOTER respawns have a single tank bring here back to room 3.
Is that a real thing you can do
Is MotD viable on fights with adds?
HAHA holy fuck
Is SS and and exsang intended to be dynamic (aka you can refresh on pandemic and retain the damage bonuses)? Or are they intended to be snapshot like feral?
plz @ me if you respond ❤
Not sure if it's worth holding Gale Callers just a little bit til feeling a bit energy starved 🤔
HOLY SHIT
100 parses on everyone except a tank and 2 healers
might be overkill on open?
no wonder
Mother just became the easiest Mythic boss this tier?
i pulled 18k on mother
Do you play CT over PB this week in m+ ?
They still wiped 21 times trying to do that
I actually run PB over Ct this week
I play with PB and exsang and do g g g ( with last g on prio target ) rupture that prio target gale exsang
is that correct
I'd say that looks good
Is ss still a good azerite trait?
no its trash
Yeah shush
it needs a buff
Rip
it's bugged too
Lol
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation

So about to switch from sub to assassin I want to try this ex sang thing is there a guide for it? Didn’t see anything in pins
guys do you CT on 2 targets?
Damage matters
!ss

Yes Staba
FotM we are here
thanks ma man
But rupture on both targets is prio
is this implying that garrote SHOULD be dynamic?
@thin ingot apl is >=2. For uptime.
why exacltly is ss soo good is it just soo much dmg with the few casts every 2 minutes or is there a way to go invis more often?
It's crazy damage
Garrote only in subterfuge unless there is not previous garrote on the target
@strange python idk what is implied just read the bottom line for advise on hwo it will affect ur playstyle
SS is nothing.
on ST Garrote will be doing 30-40% of your dmg
ss is shit
oh sorry
It’s 500 more dps over the next best trait
SS. Is bad. Play sub.
Sub good
👀
they have dances
👮
Dude
what's the optimal way to combine ur cooldowns, mainly vendetta, vanish and toxic blade
SS trash
You can stun an entire pack
@crisp steppe I've been allowing empowered bleeds to run full duration before refreshing, just wondering what the intended behavior is.
That is beast
@indigo verge there's a guide up there pinned
when do we pool on single target? and is there a general amount?
@strange python I don't imagine thats intended behaviour
In m+ when should I pop exsanguinate?
That's intended behaviour
@indigo verge The guide gives good info, just doesn't explain the info too in depth. Read that, then chill here to gain a deeper understanding!
void elf + sub = many poofs
And does CT benefit from it?
NEVER overwrite a buffed Garrote
NEVER garrote outside Subterfurge if you have an empowered garrote up
@strange python That wasn't the question
What was the question
sorry

"empowered bleeds"
huh
What do you mean
Exsang bleeds or subterfuge garrotes?
@strange python since ss is bugged, whether its intended to be dynamic or snapshotted
is all
ohhhh
Yeah doubt that's intended
since the subterfuge buff stays
Is CT bleed effected by exsanguniate?
It's only the SS buff that goes away
Outlaw was the problem xD
yes @stable mauve
"It's a feature" - Blizz
when you use your 4th garrote
but only ST
Makes a dramatic difference, working with dynamic vs snapshot bleeds, ya feel
They gonna hit sin soon I feel it
nah
Why? Sin is t r a s h
they hit there specs
Sin is becoming FotM . always the worst
So basically dont cast any non subterfuged garrotes until your sub ones run out?
who do I gotta talk to so i can redesign the Raventholdt website?
Yeah
But m+
Blizz's new baby
"new"
You don't want to be top in pvp either or they do that BitS stealth nerf
what do you mean new baby
Double dagger for assassination correct ?
they can't even bother to add rewards for m+ season
